Infographic Proposal- please submit in Edmodo
After looking at different infographics you should have a better idea about what they are and how information can be presented to a viewer. Your task is to make your own infographic that displays information about you. What you choose to display is your choice, it could be a highlight reel of the past year or a particular event of your life. Prior to starting you must submit a proposal with a clear idea that includes the following…
What 5 facts will you include in your infographic?
What will your color scheme be? (No more than 5 colors)
What fonts will you use? (No more than 4 fonts)
What Art Elements will you use to break apart the information?
What 3 graphics will you design from scratch?
How will you present the information to the viewer?
Part III:
You are going to use Adobe Illustrator to create an infographic that represents you in some way. It can be a timeline of your whole life or a highlight reel of your past year. You could also make your infographic about a particular event that has happened in your life or a simple resume.
Decide on the information about yourself that you would like to share with the class. Objectives:
Include at least 5 facts about yourself within the infographic
Topic & information presented are clear to the viewer (information provided is about you in some way)
All graphics are related to the topic and facts and make understanding the information easier
All graphics are created by the student (INCLUDE AT LEAST 3)
The use of the art elements and principles of design help to grab the viewers’ attention
All text is legible and free of grammatical errors
Create a new document in Adobe Illustrator that is 11x17” landscape or portrait and title it “PD#+LASTNAME+Infographic” and get started.
*You may not use any clip art from the internet, everything must be from scratch.* *YOU MAY USE THE OSMO to redraw anything you need**
